Gunmen hung a man from a pedestrian bridge over a busy avenue in the Mexican city of Monterrey Tuesday and shot him to death in front of dozens of motorists.
A police investigator in Nuevo Leon state, where Monterrey is located, said the man was alive when he was hung and died after being shot.
The investigator, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the case, said the assailants left a threatening message but he wouldn’t reveal what it said.
